Ingredients
  

Apple Base
  • 2 large apples cored and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice prevents browning
Peanut Butter Layer
  • 1 2 cup peanut butter creamy
  • 1 tablespoon honey optional for sweetness
Toppings
  • 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips optional
  • 1 4 cup granola adds crunch
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon optional

Equipment

  • Cutting Board
  • Knife
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Spoon
  • Tray
  • Freezer

Method
 

  1. Slice apples evenly and brush lightly with lemon juice to keep them fresh and crisp.
  2. Stir peanut butter and honey together until smooth and easy to spread.
  3. Spread peanut butter mixture generously over one side of each apple slice.
  4. Sprinkle chocolate chips, granola, and cinnamon across the tops for extra flavor and texture.
  5. Serve immediately for maximum crunch, or freeze briefly for a firmer snack texture.

Notes

Serve immediately for crisp apple texture, or chill briefly for a firmer bite. Freeze slices on a tray before storing to prevent sticking. Handle gently after freezing because apples soften as they thaw. Customize flavors with almond butter, coconut, raisins, or crushed nuts. Store refrigerated in airtight containers for two days.
